I am currently using Kubuntu 7.10 in it's x86-64 flavor.
Almost all of the applications are 64-bit. Whether they are fully optimized, or whether they have only been compiled I cannot say. Konqueror, Firefox, MPlayer, Amarok, etc... are all 64-bit. You may have some trouble with Flash, because Adobe currently only has it compiled for 32-bit systems. If you want Wine, you'll have to get it from the Wine website. Other than that, it has been much the same as the 32-bit version for me. |
